The Apostle's Instructions to Slavery

First timothy, chapter six, verses one to ten. In the first two versis, paul gives instruction to slaves as to how they are to regard and treat their master. Secondly, he gives instruction regarding false teachers, and in particular, how to identify them. And thirdly,. he gives instruction to covetous people to repudiate greed and to learn that contentment is better than covetousness. The principles can be applied to us just as relevantly as they could be in timothy's own day.
